SkyWatch ~ Yet Another Sunrise

Enlarge if you wish...

Every day the sun rises, just not like this ...








using an immense range of the colour palette



the more you looked, the more you got.



Blues and pinks and purples, switching back to
glowing golds.
Reflecting on the insulation of our new shed and
accentuating the view from one of my studio windows.


Back to clear as well as burnished gold in the East.



Another super hot day in our heatwave has begun.

Thanks to the wonderful SkyWatch team for keeping this
meme week after week.

    That really looks beautiful ! I haven't seen special sunsets here in Egypt, because where I am you get the impression that from daylight it's goes right away to dark !

    Fantastic captures, Arija, as always! The colors are breathtaking! And to watch them move and change almost from minute to minute is such wonderful experience. It's sights like these that help one put aside, for a little while, the ugly things in the world.

    Enjoy!

    Funny how perception is - those skies didn't look hot to me until you mentioned the heatwave - now they do!!

    It is so bizarre, Arija, reading about your sunshine and heatwave when here on the West of our country many towns and villages are flooded, and more heavy rain is forecast.

    Can't get enough beautiful sunrises! I keep forgetting we are on opposite sides of the ball. Love the flowers in your last post, by the way. Several of them are completely new to me.

    That window in the second to the last shot looks like a painting.

    All worth getting up for Arija, even if it's after noon here. The sky in the first image looks like the folds in fabric that I'd like in a skirt, just like that. And then as the fabric swirls into all those beautiful combinations.

    Oh dear, your bush fire has started? Looks very beautiful on your photos, but I guess when the fire is burning, it is another story.

    Re: erosion at mountains: The farmers who were angry that they had to take the cows off argue that the cows do not cause erosion, it is people (like me) who are not nimble cause the erosion)

    The town folks and tourists miss seeing a cow in the city.

    That shot through the shed window is unique.

    Lovely sunrise images. It is diffciult to think of a heat wave right now and being autumn all our sunrises are sort of misty.

    Please come over and bring some colors to my skies. Mine are grey today. 95% chance of rain.

    What did you see between the lines? I posted the story with the picture. I am afraid it's not that extraordinary, just a day in a life... Tsup!

    Oh my goodness. You are already into the heat of summer!

    The skies are gorgeous, though. I'm beginning to think you have two seasons: summer and non-summer. ;-)
